I know @Tarev. I would rather they err on the side of caution, but this time they were waaaaay off. They predicted 27ยบ or colder in our area for at least 9 hours or more starting at midnight. I went to bed at 3 am and it was still 37/51 in the GH. I went to bed with confidence. It did freeze but it only for about 3 hours. I still have gingers and EE's standing! But alas, this is Texas. I am sure it will be in the 70's next week and I will have to reconnect all the garden hoses and unwrap all the pipes. I know they don't have to to this in the East. But here ALL our pipes are exposed and they have to be protected.
Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love Truly, Laugh
uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you Smile.
